ǂÔs

We no longer come the name in cards of younger date. The place is right west of Aais 31, to name a direction point. Vessel places OS (mountain name) on 2318 AA, Hahn slightly more west, so it correlates with the modern farm Smalhoek No. 236 on 2317 bb. Hahn and ViBT writes the name with nasalized vowel, Krenz's statement is with the word without nasalty (Nama ╪6 = 'Eng', Kr.R. 1969 NW 330), and then it also seems to correlate linguistically with narrow angle.

Description
eng We no longer come the name in cards of younger date. The place is right west of Aais 31, to name a direction point. Vessel places OS (mountain name) on 2318 AA, Hahn slightly more west, so it correlates with the modern farm Smalhoek No. 236 on 2317 bb. Hahn and ViBT writes the name with nasalized vowel, Krenz's statement is with the word without nasalty (Nama ╪6 = 'Eng', Kr.R. 1969 NW 330), and then it also seems to correlate linguistically with narrow angle.
afr Ons kom die naam nie meer tee in kaarte van jonger datum nie. Die plek le reg wes van Aais 31, om ’n rigtingspunt te noem. Kiepert plaas Os (bergnaam) op 2318 AA, Hahn effens meer wes, sodat dit korreleer met die moderne plaas Smalhoek nr 236 op 2317 BB. Hahn en Kiepert skryf die naam met genasaleerde klinker, Krenz se verklaring is met die woord sonder nasaliteit (Nama ╪6= 'eng', Kr.-R. 1969 NW 330), en dan skyn dit ook taalkundig met Smalhoek te korreleer.
